Information About Coventry Airport

Coventry is famous for many things: its cathedral, university, Transport Museum, the Sky Blues and its notorious ring road. But it’s also on the map for one other reason where flying enthusiasts in Warwickshire and the surrounding areas are concerned.

Coventry Airport is conveniently situated on the edge of the city, and is close to many major transport routes, including the M40 and M6 motorways. It first opened under the name Baginton Aerodrome in 1936.

Just three years later, it became a fighter airfield at the outbreak of World War II in 1939, by which point, the aircraft manufacturer Armstrong Whitworth, had built a factory on site.

During the war, it was known as RAF Baginton, with just under 15 different Squadrons situated there at one time or another. The airbase notably sustained considerable damage following the Blitz bombings of Coventry by the Luftwaffe in 1940.

Civil aviation returned to the site at the end of the war, with commercial flights from Coventry to other destinations continuing until the autumn of 2008. Today, Coventry Airport has gained a new lease of life.

As well as its use as a filming location for major TV and film productions, it is home to a number of flying clubs and flight training academies, as well as the local air ambulance service and British International Helicopters Limited.

Flight Seeing at Coventry Airport

Some people content themselves by taking a sightseeing tour on foot or in a coach, but why settle for that when you can do it in style in a helicopter courtesy of FlyDays.co.uk.

You’ll get to step inside the cockpit and enjoy the flight of your life hovering above Coventry and its distinctive landmarks including the cathedral and the Ricoh Arena.

By the time your magical experience in the sky has finished, we’re pretty sure you’ll agree that doing a sightseeing tour at ground level will never have the same appeal again.

Exhilarating Helicopter Lessons

You can take a helicopter experience to new heights by actually flying one. We have a variety of helicopter flying lessons available from Coventry Airport that let you take the controls.

They provide a great introductory insight to becoming a helicopter pilot and could whet your appetite for a possible future career or pastime in aviation.

Flying for Two at Coventry

A helicopter flight can also be enjoyed with a friend, partner, family member or loved one. FlyDays has an array of flying experiences available for two, and sometimes even three people to enjoy together, so you can share and enjoy the magical memories afterwards.

These range from sightseeing tours to tactical flying lessons. We’ve got the perfect package for you, however and whoever you want to get airborne with.

Booking to Fly at Coventry Airport

Our open gift vouchers provide you with the freedom to enjoy your flying experience when the time is right for you or your loved one. But you can also book an available date from our calendar if you’ve got a time in mind.

Then it’s a case of simply choosing the package you want, whether it’s as a well earned treat for yourself or as a surprise gift for someone special, and not before long it will be flight time.
